Last Sunday morning, almost 2,500 Malaysians gathered at Putrajaya for the NIVEA Care Run,
hosted by NIVEA Protect & Care, a gentle yet long-lasting deodorant
designed to care for the underarm skin. Expanding on its theme,
‘Protects What You Care’ to include care to the community, a
contribution of RM20,000 from the run was also donated to Yayasan Budi
Penyayang Malaysia (PENYAYANG), an established charity organisation that
supports Malaysians in need.

NIVEA Protect & Care
deodorant uses an alcohol-free formula that is tough on sweat, offering
up to 48 hours of protection, while its skin-friendly ingredients leave
underarms skin softer and smoother. Enriched with the essence of NIVEA
Crème, it nourishes and cares for the underarms with its distinctive
ingredients and delicate scent. I am using this daily as I am busy mom of two boys always on the go.

“NIVEA Protect & Care
is privileged to collaborate with PENYAYANG in their efforts to support
Malaysians in need,” said Ng Hock Guan, Country Manager for Beiersdorf
Malaysia & Singapore. “Today’s run is closely aligned with our brand
proposition for NIVEA Protect & Care deodorant, where protection
and care come hand in hand. Hence, we are also very grateful to all our
partners and sponsors for working together with us to support this
cause. We are also very proud that so many Malaysians have come forth to
support the NIVEA Care Run. Each participant has played a role in
today’s success.”

the NIVEA management team and celebrity guest Siti Saleha

To raise further awareness about
underarm care, participants of the NIVEA Care Run were presented with
plenty of skin facts such as the extent of skin damage caused by shaving
and tweezing and how debris removed during shaving may contain up to
36% of skin*, shown via a skin test demonstration.

Other
activities at the run included a “Protect & Care” pledge wall where
participants could leave messages to express their care for loved ones,
a PENYAYANG booth, lucky
draws and photo booths, with the presence of local celebrities Siti Saleha, Nadia Heng and Fiqrie.

With
great support from runners, sponsors and partners, the NIVEA Care Run
was a resounding success, achieving its objective to raise awareness
about underarm care while raising funds to help protect and care for
others.

NIVEA Protect & Care deodorant is available
in 50ml roll-on bottles at RM11.30 and 150ml sprays at RM17.50 (West
& East Malaysia) at all leading stores and pharmacies nationwide.
